Fall Creek village, WI in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Fall Creek village is a small town in Wisconsin, with 1,502 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #312 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 35.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Fall Creek village earn a median of $82,250 a year, 4.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 11% above the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 6.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Fall Creek village is valued at $202,700, 33.2% below the national figure and 4% below the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,054 a month, 25% below the national figure, or roughly $12,648 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 75.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
